    If Hamas cares about Gaza residents they will voluntarily hand themselves over.

        That is sadly what I fear, too. They had the Gaza strip locked down in all sorts of ways before and they will not award the Palestinians any breathing room…

        Have they not tried to reach terms about 16 times already? Palestine refused all attempts even ones that offered 2 states.

        Yes. Israel is defending themselves against Hamas terrorists, they don’t fight for fun. “It is true we have won all our wars, but we have paid for them. We don’t want victories anymore.” - Golda Meir.

          Empty rhetoric and hollow quotes. Hope whatever state apparatus you’re with is paying you overtime.

      What on Earth would lead you to think Hamas cares about Gaza residents? The whole point of Hamas’s attacks was to provoke this sort of Israeli reaction. The innocent Palestinians who are going to die in this attack are no more than disposable pawns and human shields to Hamas.
